Disaster can strike quickly and without warning. Imagine that you are confined to your home or vehicle with no electricity, no gas, no water and no telephone service. Imagine that all businesses are closed and you are without any kind of emergency services. What will you do until help arrives? How you endure a disaster depends on preparedness planning done today.You can't afford to be unprepared!

September is National Preparedness Month by proclamation of the Governor.
